of vapor freeze and become ice vessicles,
or spicula, and are propelled by electric
and wind currents to the poles" Strong
currents of electricity are sent up to the
balloon and complete electric communi-
cation established between the earth and
the higher strata of the air. The steel
points on the balloon becoming electri-
fed, attract the vessicles of vapor,
described above, "impinge them," to use
Cahilps language, and precipitate them
below the moisture belt, where they melt
and fall to the earth as rain. To assist
this, the refectors of heat, &C., play an
important part.
Another scheme is to have tall towers
of iron of telescope construction erected
upon high eminences. Inside of these
towers tremendous currents of warm air
and steam are injected upward to the
atmospheric zones of ice, thereby sub
serving the melting of "ice spicula," as
described above.
The inventors third scheme consists
of immense burning glasses placed on
the surface of the earth of such magni-
tude that the suns rays will pierce
through cloudland and focus in that mys-
FERROUS region that floats around the
globe, melting the ice spicula and pro-
ducing rain. Cahill wac thwarted in his
philanthropic designs, as he was refused
a patent, but he still feels the proud
consciousness that if the earth goes to
smash it will not be his fault.

"What do you mean by sending me such
impudent verses?'
The anger she felt on the score she would
not speak of passed into her voice, and her
tone was cold and strident.
Her words were stunning blow to Rolfe
the conclusion struck out heat. Drawing
himself up and squarely confronting her
his blonde head thrown back and his blue
eyes lit up like lantern, he said:
ut means that lay at your feet the love
OF an honest man, which is more than can be
said for another of your suitors"
Itwas rude speech. The lady was dumb
with fury for moment. She drew Rolfe's
verses from her dress and brandished them
in her hands while waiting for words.
Whats this ?" said her father, who, reused
from his after-dinner doze in the parlor, had
entered the passage. Stepping angrily for
ward he caught the paper from his daughters
grasp. what does this mean?" he said
looking at Rolfe's unfortunate verses.

FAMILY TROUBLES.

I'm going out little while,
And you must promise, Dollie,
To sit as quiet as mouse,
And not go romping DER the house
With pussy cat and Polly.
For pussy's paws are very sharp,
And they are sure to scratch you;
Or if you get in Polly's reach
She'll give an awful awful screech,
And with her beak she'll catch you.
And don't go mussing up your things,
Or get your dress in creases;
Don't put your hands up to your hat,
Your bangs are loose-remember that
And they may come to pieces.
Don't pull the buttons off your shoes,
Or laugh when Polly chatters;
You mustn't mind her talk bit,
But only shut your eyes and sit
And think of other matters.
And promise, Dollie, not to pout,
1t makes you look so simple;
For every time you frown, you know,
1t makes the nasty wrinkles grow,
And spoils your pretty dimple.
You'd better go to sleep, for then
I'll have no cause to scold you;
By-by, my dear-now try and see
How good you really can be-
Remember what told you.

Even the fact that she had signed her ini-
tials instead of her name stirred his feelings.
1t seemed to be the suggestion of a confiden-
tial relation that he was expected to under
stand.
1t was lovely vision that stood smiling
before him in his musing-a clear, trans
parent complexion, flashing black eyes, a
stately bearing. She had inherited the
beauty and wit of her mother, an accom-
plished English lady whom Mr.. Craydocke
had won to be the mistress of his Maryland
home and whose death was still a poignant
sorrow.
The old manor-house and its hearty en-
joyments came before him. A part of the
scene, but out of place in it, there was his old
self-a quiet, studious, moody young man,
Mr.. Henry Craydocke's private secretary by
title, but really sort of upper servant, for
he had been bought by the lord of the
manor, one among a shipload of convicts and
redemptioners sold at Annapolis into service
for term of years to pay the expenses of
their passage to Lord Baltimore's planta-
tions Who he really was he did not know.
He remembered having happy home and
loving widowed mother before he was kid
mapped by a crimp in an English seaport
town and shipped across the sea. His fate
was not an extraordinary one; for so great
was the demand for labor in the tobacco
plantations in the provinces that the exporta-
ton of servants was profitable business,
and kidnapping was not unusual. Craydocke
took the trouble to write to correspondents in

"Then, sir, you shall get out of my house at

room, and began to pack his effects.

lord. Like most all old ""
Maryland houses, Sim
neput Manor-house was surrounded by a
long porch, and had broad passage
opening through the house. A pack of
the fox-hounds which were an indis-
pensable adjunct to every planters estab-
ishment were constantly hanging about
the yard, and Master Dick Craydocke had
whistled them to the front porch to show the
good points of his favorite dogs-Sweet Lips
and Bell Tongue-to my Lord Creighton
Master Dick was playing with his dogs, when
just as my lord had stepped forward in the
passage to compliment Miss Edith as she
came down stairs in the scarlet cloth riding
jacket that was so becoming to her-the cook
appeared in the rear of the house with the
debris of the dinner, and the whole pack
made a joyous rush straight through the
house. They caught my lord in the middle
of his obeisance and his compliment; his
silk stockings went up in the air, the back of
his blue velvet coat pressed the boards and
his wig came off. Miss Edith was compass
sionate and sympathetic. Dick Craydocke
roared. Looking holly around him, my
lord caught an amused expression in the
blue eyes of Mr.. Secretary. Miss Edith had
discreetly withdrawn, so that her scrutiny
might not impede his Encouragement of his
costume. Lord Creighton strobe wrathfully
up to Rolfe.
''Sirrah, my mishap seems to amuse youw
81 regret very much that such an accident
should have befallen you, my lordv'
keep your grimaces then, fellow, for
Betty, the housemaid. Ogle her, but don't
stare at me-"
And with that my lord stamped up the
stairway to his chamber.
"Phew! but he's mad" said Dick Cray
docke. "Don't mind him, Rolfe."
But Rolfe did mind him, though, and his
thoughts distilled venom.
When Miss Edith made her great triumph
at Governor Sharpe's ball IN the winter of
1855, at Annapolis, and her wit and beauty
were the talk of the town, it was well known
that the copy of verses ITO Clotinda," pub
lished Immediately after in the Maryland Ga
sette, were written by Lord Creighton, and had
reference to Miss Craydocke. Said the poet /:
Around her, see the Graces play,
See Venus wanton Doves
And in her eyes pellucid ray
u See little laughing Loves
and so on for twelve stanzas.

know that in INDUCING that reckless i'm
pulse Lord Creighton had wrecked the
edifice of esteem thathe had so labo-
riously built up in Edith's mind. Rolfe
could not know these things, and he
sickened with horror and disgust. Some
thing of this must have displayed itself
in his expression, for when Miss Edith swept
loftily into the house, she turned upon him
with carnation cheeks and flashing eyes. He
gravely awaited her pleasure, and for once
language failed her. She could not admit
that he had any right to an understanding of
her conduct, and yet the idea of having made
false impression upon him CALLED her. She
escaped from the embarrassment by flank
movement.
